Unpack the generator from the shipping crate and position on a flat surface, in
desired area.

2.

00-0007
First remove the compressor transit brackets.
These can be accessed by removing the generator side panels. Starting with the left
hand side panel, use the 8mm Hex Key 00-0007, and turn the lock 90° to the right.
Page 5

3.

Once unlocked remove the left hand side panel, ensuring you disconnect the earth
lead located in the lower middle of the panel.

4.

The transit brackets are located below the compressor and have stickers on them
stating ‘Remove before use’. To remove the transit brackets remove the four screws
as indicated, then slide the bracket out from underneath the compressors. Please
retain the brackets and screws for future transportation.

00-1282
Connect the 6mm PE Tubing 00-1282 to the ¼”- 6mm Push Fit Fitting 02-4600.
Fit the other end of the tubing to a suitable drain connection or container. The
container MUST NOT have an airtight seal as water and air will be expelled
periodically under a slight pressure.

230V

Plug the mains cable into the corresponding 230VAC 50/60Hz single phase power
supply.
CAUTION ensure the correct cable has been selected for your electrical supply.
Consult the Electrical Requirements section if you are unsure of the requirements of
your generator.

11.

Switch the generator power ON using the switch on the front panel.

12.

Check the Generators internal voltmeter. This will measure and display the mains
voltage that is being supplied to the generator. Note the displayed voltage. If the
voltage is 195V to 219V a transformer will be required. This can be ordered directly
from Peak. 06-3210 Dual Tap Transformer 200-230V

After 30 minutes of running, the generator can be turned OFF.
Allow the stored gas in the internal tanks to dissipate.

22a.

22b.

The purge is now complete. Once the pressure gauges on the front of the generator
read 0, the fittings can be connected to the generators gas outlets.

CONGRATULATIONS
Your Peak Scientific gas generator is now fully installed, operational and ready to
supply gas on demand to your instrument.

General Notes

Electrical requirements for 230V generators is 195V - 253V 50/60Hz. For 195V 219V a 06-3210 Dual Tap Transformer is required.
1.


The Teflon tube supplied in the fittings kit is to allow the generator to be installed
adjacent to the instrument it is supplying. If the generator is to be installed further
away from the instrument then attention needs to be paid to pressure drops that could
occur. The maximum distance away from the instrument the generator can be placed
still using 6mm (4mm internal diameter) or ¼” (3/16” internal diameter) tubing is 10m.
For further information relating to tubing lengths please refer to the user manual.
